I sometimes look down at it and say whoa I actually have a Rolex on my wrist.

I think of how lucky I have been in life, but also working extremely hard to be able to have an awesome watch. I never thought I could afford or actually want one.

It also reminds me of why I got into luxury watches that one day I will be able to pass down to my son.

Yes, on all three. I laugh to myself when I have to look at my watch again to see what time it is after I just spent a minute looking at it!

Yes I stare at my watches. And get told off by my wife. But I hope some day my kids will appreciate what I leave to them and enjoy as much. 🤣

Yes to all of the above. My worst habit is looking at the watch to check the time, and then forgetting to look at the time! I get side-tracked by the gold or bezel or any number of non-time related features of my watch. Great art is Great Art!!

I do those things, but I don't like to talk about it.

Look at my watches so many times thinking exactly that. In fact I rarely look at my watch to tell the time, most of the time I’m just admiring it.

I actually wear a watch when I'm watching TV.

I'll be honest. I actually wear one pretty much all the time.

I have Rolexes that can dive to the lowest depths and climb the highest mountains , I have Rolexes that can be set to several time zones , I even have ra Rolex made to be used while sailing a yacht that I don’t even own or have never even been on .
My Rolexes just sit on the couch while I watch TV

Yup every day and I’m constantly wiping the face with a microfiber cloth. My wife thinks I’m nuts.
